Namco Networks has announced the availability of PAC-MAN Arcade Golf, challenging players to complete 27 holes of mini-golf in three courses and master more than 100 mini-games in this combination of mini-golf and classic arcade game fun for the mobile phone. Here is more info:

Playing as one of four unique golfers, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, players putt their way around the world on international mini-golf courses. In traditional mini-golf style, each increasingly challenging course contains bumpers, walls and warp holes. New twists to the mini-golf concept include bonus fruit from PAC-MAN, and coins that can be collected and then used to activate arcade machines found on the course.

Sinking the ball into an arcade machine allows players to access one of more than 100 retro mini-games based on best-selling arcade games including PAC-MAN, Dig Dug, Galaxian and a claw machine. Once players master the mini-games, PAC-MAN will become available as an additional golfer the player can choose.

PAC-MAN Arcade Golf includes Quick Play, Tournament, Challenges, and Mini-Game mode. Within Tournament mode, players players travel through Europe, the US and Japan and play three 9-hole courses in tournaments against computer-controled players. Quick Play mode allows players to choose one of the three courses and challenge up to three other friends to one, three or nine holes (single and multiplayer options are available, allowing up to four players to compete concurrently on the same handset). Challenges mode features eight holes, each with certain criteria for the player to meet in order to advance. In Mini-Games mode, players can skip right ahead to the arcade mini-games.
